For the first time ever, dentists can measure the mobility of both natural teeth and dental implants — objectively and without guesswork. In teeth, “internal mobility” is generally associated with cracks and loose restorations; in implants, it shows movement within the implant structure.
The InnerView® system uses Quantitative Percussion Diagnostics (QPD®) to turn gentle percussive taps into measurable data on teeth and implants, transforming how clinicians identify early structural changes and make diagnostic decisions.
Every reading gives two measurements for each tooth or implant: Overall Mobility, the movement of the tooth or implant within the bone/PDL, and Internal Mobility, oscillation within the structure and/or restoration.
What the InnerView® System Offers
In teeth, the InnerView system quantifies “internal mobility” generally associated with cracks and loose restorations, which often precedes visible failure. In implants, it quantifies overall and internal mobility at every visit. Both give earlier insight than imaging alone.
The full-mouth dashboard and trendline history of the InnerView system let you see how each tooth and each implant is changing over time. You can monitor rising mobility values, spot problems developing across visits, and identify treatment needs earlier, often before symptoms or visible signs appear.
Objective mobility readings for teeth and implants make treatment needs clearer and easier to explain. Patients understand the urgency faster, case acceptance improves, and your practice captures revenue that would otherwise be missed.
The InnerView system leverages proprietary QPD® technology and advanced analytics to deliver precise, reproducible Overall Mobility and Internal Mobility measurements for natural teeth and dental implants, providing a new layer of clinical insight beyond what imaging or visual exams can show.
An InnerView® assessment can be performed by your assistant or hygienist as part of a routine exam. A brief, 2.5-millisecond percussion tap is applied to the tooth or implant, capturing the energy response without radiation or discomfort. Each assessment takes only seconds and fits naturally into your workflow.
QPD® technology instantly interprets the energy response and converts it into objective Overall Mobility and Internal Mobility values. These readings help identify mobility changes that may indicate a tooth or an implant needs attention sooner rather than later.
In the Dental Operatory
The InnerView system shows how each tooth and implant is changing over time, making rising mobility levels impossible to miss. When a tooth or an implant begins to change, the trendline provides clear evidence for early intervention, helping clinicians treat problems before they become painful or complex instead of “watching” them in the dark.
QPD finally allows us to identify both internal and external mobility early in the disease progression. It allows us to plan a treatment that is not too early, nor too late. I believe QPD can be a valuable addition to our inventory for predictive diagnostics.

Traditional methods have never been able to show what is happening inside a tooth or an implant, including internal changes in teeth generally associated with cracks and loose restorations. QPD provides objective internal mobility values for both that offer new clinical insight.
Dentistry has relied on snapshots from each visit, without a reproducible metric to show whether a tooth or an implant is stable, improving, or quietly deteriorating. QPD trendlines provide that metric for both, revealing when a tooth or implant is beginning to change so clinicians can intervene before problems become painful or catastrophic.
QPD is supported by more than 31 clinical studies published in leading dental journals.

The InnerView system allows clinicians to see what’s been invisible until now — helping identify hidden internal changes before they cause pain, failed restorations, or patient frustration from repeated “wait and see” exams.
